SN is my answer. I'll give clues if requested but thought I'd leave it for now for people to have more time if they wish.

Next puzzle is for SC.
A carpenter has a cube of wood, each edge measuring 30cm. He wants to cut it into 27 cubes which have edges measuring 10cms.
What is the smallest number of cuts he needs to make if he can stack and cut several pieces at once.
